We hold book sales throughout the year, which include Manuscripts, Antiquarian Books, Modern First Editions and Maps. More general books are sold in our fortnightly Town and County Sales.

Our book specialist, John Anderson, together with consultant, Charlotte Brown, have advised, catalogued and sold a number of important collections.

Whilst the majority of all books that we see are not especially valuable or rare, there are always notable exceptions and we are happy to advise clients on their collections or libraries, with a view to future sale possibilities.
